[custom:mwc15]As journalists and industry members alike start hitting Barcelona Airport for MWC 2015, they'll be greeted by a large number of ad placements from Huawei for a watch that, frankly, we weren't expecting just yet. The "Huawei Watch," as the ad calls it, is circular and shown off in three distinct styles on the billboard – silver with a silver mesh band, gold with a brown leather band, and black with a black sports band.

The billboards read "Timeless design. Smart within.", with a sophisticated-looking model wearing a nice suit and the silver watch. The "timeless" portion of the pitch refers to the classic design – this is a round watch, of course – and "impeccable craftsmanship," while the "smart" portion lists state-of-the-art wearable technology and Android Wear as features.

While it's not super surprising that Huawei is getting in on the Android Wear game, it's a little odd to see it revealed before any official announcement at a place where thousands of journalists will be coming through in the next couple of days. We'll be liveblogging Huawei's press conference on Sunday, March 1 at 1:30 p.m. CET (that's 7:30 a.m. ET) where we can expect to learn the official story behind the Huawei watch

I predict that this year will be the death of the $600 phone. These Chinese companies will swoop into the American market and decimate all high end over priced phones. Same or better specs, same or better quality and great design.

Not gonna happen anytime soon. Xiaomi can't even spell their devices here. We have something called parents that many Chinese manufacturers have ahem *used without approval. The Chinese know how to comply things and exceed them

Unfortunately I don't think I could trust any company based out of where they're from. Lenovo, Huawai, and any other rising from that area. The fact is the government of the US and other countries warned that they'd be putting things in their devices that would be used for spying. They've been caught spying in other countries. And they are aggressively going everywhere else first forcing the phones inside the areas where they don't want them eventually. And by then the people will forget and gladly accept them into the US and other places with open arms.

Not quite as thin as my 306, but close enough. I suspect there's no ambient light sensor, the main culprit for the flat tire. I can't tell you how much I love the ambient light sensor for screen brightness.

No reason to be "sorry". I simply place it on a neat wireless charger every night before I go to bed just as I would with any other watch. Only Moto360 becomes a night clock as oppose to useless pile of metal. I am kinda sorry that you have to pull yours out of a band and plug in a USB cable.

It's not about the battery life. It's about being visible in bright sunlight, and not overbearing in a dark room. No matter where I am, the display is always the appropriate level of brightness, and I don't have to manually change it. If you're happy with having it set to high all the time, that's good. I'm not. As another poster said, the choice available on Android is a beautiful thing. There's something for everyone.

We'll see. We don't even know the prices of the iCrap-Time. Remember carriers won't be subsidising it which means all the Americans with iPhones that only have them because they don't have to pay it full price upfront, won't be getting it.

Here we go with the icrap.
Smh, do we really have to resort to call them that. Personally I don't care for any smartwatch but the iWatch will sell more than all other already released smartwatch period. That's what Apple does.
